Media to avoid
The all-in-one can handle many types of media. Using media that is outside the specifications
degrades print quality and increases the chance of jams occurring.
●
Do not use media that is too rough.
●
Do not use media that contains cutouts or perforations other than standard 3-hole punched
paper.
●
Do not use multipart forms.
●
Do not use paper that contains a watermark if you are printing solid patterns.
Media that can damage the all-in-one
In rare circumstances media can damage the all-in-one. Avoid the following types of media to
prevent possible damage:
●
Do not use media with staples attached.
●
Do not use transparencies designed for inkjet printers or other low-temperature printers. Use
only transparencies that are specified for use with HP LaserJet printers.
●
Do not use photo paper intended for inkjet printers.
●
Do not use paper that is embossed or coated and is not designed for the temperature of the
image-fuser. Select media that can tolerate temperatures of 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second.
HP manufactures a media that is designed for the all-in-one.
●

for 0.1 second.
●
Do not use any media that produces emissions, or that melts, offsets, or discolors when
exposed to 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second.
